Nicotiana benthamiana, or "benthi" as it is affectionately referred to by scientists, is a tobacco species native to Australia. Loaded with nicotine and other alkaloids, the plant is used as a stimulant by the Australian indigenous population. Its scientific uses are numerous. It is a model organism for studying plant pathology, it rapidly express genes of interest introduced by Agroinfiltration so that the resulting proteins can be studied, and it has been used as a bioreactor to produce important proteins like the COVID-19 antigen for vaccine production. This vintage botanical illustration-style print of benthi will look great on the office wall of a scientist, molecular biologist, pharmacist, or science teacher.Features of framed prints: Choose from an unframed or framed museum-quality matte paper poster.
